PATIENT !
Physicians Find a Strange Case in a
Boy's Illness.
UNCONSCIOUS SINCE YESTERDAY I
After Prolonged Examination and Consulta
tion the Two Physicians in Attend
ance Conclude the Case Is One
of Catalepsy.
A boy residing at the house of a Lithuanian
family on East Contro street Is in a state of
physical prostration that is puzzling Boino of
tho local physicians. Tho boy Is ten years
old. Tho family with whom he boards say
they know him only by his christian name
Ludwlg. Ills last name Is unknown to them.
His mother lives as a servant witli a family
In New York City. About a month ago tho
child arrived in town and applied at the
house In which ho is now lying for hoard.
He was taken in and ho secured work in a
breaker.
On Sunday tho boy played on the street all
day and for several hours in tho evening. So
far as can bo learned hornet with no accident,
but when tho boarding mistress went to
arouse him yesterday morning sho found it
impossible to do so. Dr. Stein was called to
tho house and he resorted to several methods
to restore the boy to consciousness, all of
which failed. Medicine was ordered and tho
patient was allowed to rest until this morn
ing, when Drs, Stein and Spalding held a
consultation, The family stated that the
patient's condition remained unchanged
siuce yesterday. Occasionally ho tossed
his arms, legs and head about,
but only onco did he attempt
to speak, and then he muttered what was
understood to be a complaint of a pain be-
noatli his heart. Repeated efforts were made
to give the boy refreshments, but he failed to
take either solids or liquids. After a superfi
cial examination tho doctors were inclined
to think the case was ouo of semi-paralysis.
but a more detailed examination led them to
the conclusion that the case is one of cata
IepBy. Tho family having charge of the boy
aro making efforts to communicate with his
mother. It is said that sho has funds with
which to provide for tho boy.
If tiie case Is one of catalepsy, it Is tho
first to occur in this town, and therefore is
attracting no little attention. Catalepsy is a
term applied to a nervous affection charac
terized by the sudden suspension of sousation
and volition, accompanied with a peculiar
rigidity of the whole, or certaiu muscles of
the body, The exciting cause of an attack
is usually mental emotion operating either
suddenly, as in the case of a fright, 01 more
gradually in the way of prolonged depression.
The symptoms presented vary in difl'erent
cases, and even in tho same individual in
difl'ereut attacks, Tho disease belongs to the
class of functional nervous disorders, of
which tho pathology is but littlo understood,
owing to tho manner in which morbid
physical and psychical conditions are mixed
up. It has been known to occur in persons
in perfect health.

to
Philadelphia. Dec. 20. District At
torney arahnm yesterday filed with the
prothonotary of the supreme court his
answer to the petition of the Quays
and ex-State Treasurer Haywood ask
ing for the removal of the People's
bank conspiracy charges against them
from the court of quarter sessions of
this county to the supreme court, and
to the various dentals made by the de
fendants to the accusations against
them In the Indictment found.
Mr. Graham made specific denial of
the allegations advanced by the de
fendants, especially concerning' former
Judge Gordon's part In the proceed
ings. In reply to the defendants' as
sertion thnt they are not guilty the
answer states that this Is a question
for a Jury, but avers that the evidence
adduced at the hearing before the mag
istrate, standing without explanation
"clearly established the guilt of the
defendants." The statement of Quay
and his co-defendants that a fair trial
cannot be obtained Is termed scan
dalous and untruthful and a gross Im
putation upon the 12 judges of the
Philadelphia courts. It Is declared that
most of the evidence of the common
wealth Is documentary and is the writ
ing of "the conspirators" themselves.
The most striking part of the answer
charges that the books of the bank
snow tne use or state funds, and en

In which the alleged transaction took
